Said to seek out children who disobey their parents, she has become a \"boogeyman,\" terrorizing the imaginations of New Mexican children and inspiring them to behave. But there are other lessons her tragic history can demonstrate for children. In Rudolfo Anaya's version Maya, a young woman in ancient Mexico, loses her children to Father Time's cunning. This tragic and informative story serves as an accessible message of mortality for children. \u003ci\u003eLa Llorona\u003c\/i\u003e, deftly translated by Enrique Lamadrid, is familiar and newly informative, while Amy Córdova's rich illustrations illuminate the story. The legend as retold by Anaya, a man as integral to southwest tradition as La Llorona herself, is storytelling anchored in a very human experience. His book helps parents explain to children the reality of death and the loss of loved ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 10.1 x 8.6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 16, 2011\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAward:\u003c\/strong\u003e New Mexico Book Awards (2012)\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAward:\u003c\/strong\u003e New Mexico-Arizona Book Awards (2012)\u003c\/div\u003e\n                ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43154834423871,"sku":"9780826344601","price":23.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/uN7ElWvjT89780826344601_05b40cb3-571b-46f7-a8f7-0a70aee93ec3.jpg?v=1776959820","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/la-llorona-the-crying-woman-hardcover","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
